Applying patches #38462 and #38468 and changing the file system
definition to the following should allow you to mount the root file
system with the 'lazytime' option:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(file-system
  (device (file-system-label "GUIX"))
  (mount-point "/")
  (flags '(lazy-time))
  (options "compress")
  (type "btrfs"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
